The uniqueness of cloisonné
Cloisonné, also known as "copper wire filigree enamel", is an ancient luxury item with a history of thousands of years. Due to its intricate production process and exquisite craftsmanship, it has a noble appearance and was highly favored by the royal family, earning the title "Chinese Blue" in the Western world.
A luxury item exclusively for the royal family
In ancient China, most crafts were shared by both the government and the people, but cloisonné was exclusively enjoyed by the royal family. It combines painting, craftsmanship, carving, inlaying, and metallurgy, requiring more than a dozen processes to complete. Therefore, there are basically no two cloisonné crafts that are exactly the same.
The production process of copper wire filigree enamel
Cloisonné enamel on copper tire refers to the pattern formed by pinching thin copper wire on the copper tire, and then filling the enamel color on the vertical surface of the copper wire. After repeated firing, gilding, and polishing, it becomes a brilliant cloisonné utensil.
Wire pinching: Pinch out patterns with thin copper wire.
Dotting: Fill the enamel color on the wire-pinched copper tire.
Firing: Repeat firing to fix the enamel color on the copper tire.
Exquisite and beautiful cloisonné small pieces
Cloisonné is often associated with cheap souvenirs and rough big peony vases. However, the exquisite small cloisonné pieces exhibit classical Chinese charm. They are made with superb and complicated royal techniques. Different from traditional shapes, the relief lids of irregular shapes are decorated with delicate and lifelike patterns of flowers, birds, and insects. The overall small box is filled with bright colors, exquisite and ingenious.

Using these beautiful small cloisonné pieces to display jewelry and favorite small items can create a unique and elegant childlike fun.
Only through inheritance can the ultimate be achieved.
The process of making cloisonné is very intricate and time-consuming, requiring generations of perseverance and dedication. Each step requires patience and determination, all in pursuit of the ultimate quality. This heritage is both tedious and challenging, but it is precisely because of this that cloisonné becomes a precious work of art.
